I didn't cook a homemade meal tonight. Awful, I know. But I have a good reason -- for lunch, we ate at Cheeseburger In Paradise, because I had a buy-one-get-one-free lunch coupon! We couldn't pass it up, and we both ordered the "Beach Burger" because it came with a huge pickle. And we love pickles.

Sidenote: In the middle of eating my pickle, Mark pretended to "steal" it away from me. But I didn't know he was joking. And I snapped back and gave him the stink eye like a rabid animal! He laughed so hard that the pickle that was in his mouth went up into his nose and burned his nose. Lesson: Don't try to take a pickle out of a pregnant woman's hand.So about 15 minutes after my meal, I got really sick. I'll spare you the details, but it ended in a 2-hour nap and me feeling rotten for the rest of the day. I couldn't even think about cooked meat for supper, so I had Cocoa Krispies with a ton of milk. Mark had a frozen pizza. Fail!! :(

Urgent sidenote: Mark just saw 5 bats in our backyard. They're flying around. BATS?! How disgusting. This is why he takes her potty at night!! :)

But I'll take this opportunity to do my 34 week pregnancy update instead!

~~~~~~~~

How far along? 34 weeks!

Maternity clothes? Hey, I got a new tank top (pictured above) this week!

Sleep: Okay some nights, awful the next. I have to sleep on my back for at least part of the night to give my hips a rest!

Best moment this week: Packing her diaper bag, which is all set!! We chose her outfits for the hospital & her going home outfit.. cannot wait!

Movement: Today after my nap (I never take naps. EVER.) I sat up, and she was in the weirdest position ever!! My stomach looked like an egg. She was *completely* in a ball in the front of my stomach. I should have gotten a picture! But she wiggles around all day!

Shannon

I grew up in Kentucky, met my soul mate at church, married him two years later, and waved goodbye as he left to join the Air Force just two weeks into our marriage. I learned a heckuva lot about life, love, and sacrifice in our first year as husband and wife!

Being a mommy is my greatest joy in life.

Mark

Mark is serving our country in the United States Air Force as an electrician. He loves his career and loves his family even more. He surprises me daily with how awesome of a Daddy he can be. I am absolutely in love with him and SO thankful for him!

Little Toot

Our sweet girl entered our lives on October 20, 2010, and our lives have never been more full or more fun! She's timid, yet spunky and independent; cuddly yet always on the go. She loves learning new words, playing babies and kitchen, and being near her Mama. Her love for babies makes us very excited to see her become Big Sister this fall!

Piper

Piper is our 2-year-old West Highland Terrier! She's full of spunk and brings unimaginable joy to our lives. Piper can be found napping on the couch, snuggled next to me, carrying a "nip" around the house, or rough housing with her favorite raccoon toy! She takes her role as "protector" of our family very seriously and is always guarding our house!
